Sharks vs Dolphin

Shooting Stars topple Dolphin on NPL log
by George Akpayen 20 November 2010, 20:21

Shooting Stars have replaced Dolphin on top of the Nigeria Premier League on Saturday following their two-nil triumph over newcomers, Bukola Babes, at the Obafemi Awolowo Stadium in Ibadan.

But the lead of the Oluyole Warriors is temporary until Warri Wolves, the only side with a chance of going top, play on Sunday at the Warri City Stadium against Heartland.

Bukola Babes sure made the Stars work hard for their win in Ibadan, as they had to wait for a minute after the half hour mark to go into the lead through Raheem Owolabi.

However, it was Chima Akas that ensured that Shooting Stars did not finish the game on a nervy note with his second strike of the season on 83 minutes to hand the Ibadan club a 2-0 victory.

The victory puts Shooting Stars on seven points from three games ahead of Gombe United on same number of points.

Head coach of Shooting Stars, Fatai Amoo, said though his side won, he is not carried away, as he still feels that the players are still far from a finished product.

“I am happy with the win but we are still not that complete team yet. If Bukola Babes were really experienced enough I am sure that we would have been punished during the game when we did not take advantage after leading,” he told SuperSport.com.

Gombe United won by 1-0 against Lobi Stars in Bauchi.

But the Scorpions had to wait for a late goal from MacMarcel Obioha on 90 minutes.

In Port Harcourt, Dolphin lost their 100 per cent record to Sharks via Victor Ezeji’s 64th minute strike while Sunshine Stars got the honour of becoming the second team to grab all points at Plateau United.

Sunshine Stars’ Ukeyima Akombo scored two minutes into added time to break the hearts of Plateau United fans at the Rwang Pam Stadium.

At the Mamman Kontagora Stadium in Minna, Jos University Teaching Hospital (Juth) Football Club continued their streak of draws with a stalemate against Niger Tornadoes while Kwara United wrapped up the points on former champions, Kano Pillars, five minutes into added time with a controversial penalty converted by Isiaka Olawale.

You are right on track if that was Goldman's account. I usually use Goldman and CIA fact on issues like this.

But come to look at it, how they get their figures i still don't understand since countries like Bangladesh, Indonesia, Philippines and Vietnam are not doing well. There must be some factor we non economist tend not to be aware of when rating these things

Me too, but i don't trust CIA's reports, always outdated and it takes them time to update their database.

we r really messed up people. defending what? looting? bad roads? corruption. ghana is a far more serious country than nigeria . lets end this rubbsish.[/quote]Please tell us what you don't know, what truth are you hiding? virtually everyone knows what is up in Nigeria so what truth again is she saying that we don't know before? all she's doing now is [b]nagging [/b]and she's actually not saying anything.

I saw d video. 4rm d look of things it is like d lady was used to achieve somebody's aims or get cheap publicity. Had it bn d lady knew she was bn filmed, she would hv aborted her devilish plan. D lady should be prosecuted for her unrully behaviour.

Don't be spoonfed, the video was doctored, ask yourself, why did the video start filming at that point (onikan) when the actual deed happened on Ozumba way far away on the Island?

[quote author=Ileke-IdI link=topic=552357.msg7184006#msg7184006 date=1290285700]I love Nigeria. Telling the truth does not make me more/less patriotic.
And I've spoken my mind about a lot of matter regarding Nigeria, including the Northerners.
Does it make me less patriotic to say it's unfair for a country to have laws separating it's regions, to despise unnecessary killings because of religion  etc etc? Well then, I guess.[/quote]There was killings in Aba and Onitsha too (killings of Hausas)
Same in Lagos
Same in Ibadan.

We know it's because of the fact that many of them are not educated hence gullible to the politicians who used them to cause havoc, all they need is proper "western" education and the killings will stop, until then please stop calling them animals as you are widely known for.

@Ileke-IdI

There was a topic about Ghana on a Nigerian board posted by someone living in Ghana or a Ghanaian.People must certainly respond.
You are intercepting here on Ghana's favor while you in another board talk derogatory words about Hausa in your own Country. How patriotic are you?

She's not a Nigerian, rather she's an "Ekitian"

Plateau united is surely going back to div 1, they got beaten again at home

ow11:
As I suspected,the game had suspicions of collaboration. . .for close to 10mins in the 2nd half, Sharks had the ball and were running around like in a training session and the dolphin players although losing couldn't be bothered to fight for the ball. . . .I am glad my team picked up the points on the day but in truth it was a borefest and I regret spending my N100 on this. . . .

The artificial pitch made the game a bit more pleasing and the dolphin supporters no let me hear word. . . .will post pictures soon. . .

Abeg we need pix, hopefully you will post them on the naija league thread.

semid4lyfe:
The match ended 1 nil in favour of Sharks.

BTW, Kwara United also beat Kano Pillars by the same margin.

Oh ok, this goal drought should stop soon oo

Whats the scoreline guys?

Thank You Baba

Both of them are technically at home so i don't see any home advantage.

AMAECHI VS ODILI


Let the game begins

Eguma keen to keep perfect record

Posted: 2010-11-19 06:50

Dolphins FC coach Stanley Eguma is keen to maintain his side's perfect start to the season, despite the prospect of a testing derby game against city rivals Sharks.

The Garden City club are ensconced comfortably at the summit of the NPL log, and Eguma says his objective at the Sharks Stadium is three points.

"Derby games are never easy, but we are going there to win because we want to increase the gap at the top of the League," he said.

"We know Sharks are struggling because they only have two points and they will want to change that as soon as possible. That is why I say it will be a difficult game. But we are not going there to play for a draw. We want a win, and that is what they want also."

There have been reports of underhand tactics in this fixture in the past, and Eguma used the opportunity to call for fair play.

"All we ask is that we get match officials who will ensure fair play, and not the ones that will give out penalties just because they want to favour the home team."

Last season, the intensity of the game and intimidation around the grounds forced Eguma not only to give his half time team talk on the pitch instead of the dressing room, it also forced him to leave the grounds early.

This time, he says he expects better.

"Well, I hope what happened last season does not happen again. That is why we are happy that the game will be on television. So we will go there and play a good game and give our best, so that at the end of 90 minutes, we will remain on top of the League."


The game kicks off at 16h00 and will be live on SuperSport 9.

@honeric01

Thanks for those pic but i dont need them these are places I pasz thru almost everyday face to face in Lagos, I know Lagos in and out more than you know  you may be somewhere in UK OR US,  dreaming of home, with pic of Lagos on your laptop, hahahahaha why dont you coem home and eat  and hustle make body tell you, that why if you read my post here you will find that I praised Gov Fashola, for all these, good roads and all that arrangement, formerly Lagos was a mess,

For your information, i live 100% in Nigeria and all that goes on in her affects me negatively/positively, so drop the issue of me not living in Nigeria, by the way, before you say i live in VI, LEKKI OR IKOYI, let me break it down, i have never lived in these places, i have lived all my life in the mainland and when i talk, i know what's going on in the mainland.

  I haven't said anything about Lagos or Nigeria being 100% developed or lacks slums, we have slums and it's part of the city, but coming here to tell me all parts of Nigeria or Lagos is slum is rubbish, so bro you can only see what you want to see and since Lagos and Nigeria is bad and backward to you, it will remain backward and bad to you, if you see Nigeria and Lagos as a place where people cannot make it, then you can never make it here either, so i suggest you move to Ghana, it will save the rest of us time, the time you spend on the roads, the space you occupy in Lagos and Nigeria at large will be removed from the time the rest of us need to get to our various destinations.


I can't wait to see Lagos population dropping to like 15milliom or even 10million when your likes have all left the state, with less people in the state, the few infrastructures will last longer and better and the government will be able to plan better for the fewer population. YOU KEEP CRYING THAT LAGOS AND NIGERIA IS BAD, YET YOU STILL WOULDN'T MIGRATE TO GHANA, RATHER YOU GO THERE TO SPEND THE MONEY YOU MAKE IN THIS BAD LAGOS, please reason this yourself.

Are you celebrating because TI says you are not in TopTen?

You don't know much about international politics, shei?

Bubble-bursting time: corruption is more endemic in Nigeria than Chad, Myarmar, Somalia and those Soviet states.

We breathe it and it has eaten deep into every fabric of our national and cultural essence.

So because Nigeria is not there i should be crying? people sha, i just don't blame una, have you been to these countries you listed? do you know how their politics run? do you know what goes on in the country? just because we are Nigerians and knows some of what goes on in Nigeria does not mean others are not worse off than us.

excanny:
I'm really surprised why Nigeria isn't on this list. Politicians are busy scheming how to loot Nigeria dry in the quickest way possible. This has to be a joke.

Russia alone beats you people in corruption, infact i don go too far, Chad alone beats you people in corruption.

ishit4body:
its irrelevant because Nigeria is not on the list. but if Nigeria makes it there, than it becomes relevant?

Abeg help me ask them, when there's no improvement in Nigeria, they whine and cry, when there's a slight change (positive), they rubbish it and call it fake, junkies.

I rep Lagos weller, its a city to be, Ok  @alj harem i live in lagos Ok,

You go fear fear, an average Nigeria is a loud mouth hence the reason.

Upset with the failings of the S.A. government these days? Take a breath. At least we're not Somalia. That beleaguered, warn-torn disaster of a nation tops Transparency International's latest list of the world's most corrupt countries. The former Italian colony of 9.8 million people on the Indian Ocean, long racked by civil war, has become a capital for piracy and terrorism with little capacity for any government at all, let alone an honest one. It ranks 1.1 on Transparency's 10-point scale.

Afghanistan(Forbes.com)

And it's hardly alone. Following closely behind are Myanmar and Afghanistan, each ranking 1.4 and each tremendously corrupt in its own way. Myanmar, formerly Burma, is run by a junta of generals who have plundered the nation's timber, minerals and natural gas and led the U.S. Treasury to slap sanctions against more than 100 of its leaders including the wife and son of No. 3 official General Thurs Shew Mann.

Another war-torn nation, Iraq, came in fourth on the corruption index. Squabbling between the Shiite majority and Sunni minority, still unused to being out of power, has delayed the formation of a government but corruption among the country's administrators and judiciary is rampant.

After Iraq come the usual suspects: Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan and Chad. Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan are former Soviet republics burdened with corrupt governments that look a lot like what they suffered under when the Russians were in charge. In Uzbekistan, according to the U.S. State Dept., the "law does not forbid government officials from acting as 'consultants,' a common method of extracting payment."

In Chad, the scene of vicious infighting over the spoils of a massive oil development project and pipeline, government officials have mastered a one-two approach to corruption, the State Dept. says: "In some cases, tax and customs authorities may facilitate evasion only to return later to pursue the infractions they facilitated."

The central African nation of Burundi is a new arrival to the bottom 10. Largely dependent on coffee exports, the country has had a democratic government since the end of civil war in 2006 but remains challenged in the area of ethics. "Officially, Burundi has a number of laws and regulations prohibiting corrupt practices such as bribery, nepotism, preferential hiring and promotion and embezzlement," the State Dept. says. "In practice, these measures are rarely enforced."

Also new to the list of the 10 most corrupt is Equatorial Guinea, which has vaulted from desperate poverty to incredible wealth--for the leaders, anyway--since the discovery of huge offshore oil deposits in the early 1990s. Riding the wave of wealth has been President Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo, who's dominated the government of this West African nation since he led a coup d'etat in 1979.

Transparency International annually ranks the world's nations on their index of corruption (a scale of 1-10). Northern European countries, with Denmark, Finland and Sweden, top the list with nearly pristine scores of 9.2 or more. South Africa came in 54th place, meaning we're not great, but not that bad, yet. Here is the list of the ten worst countries:

 Don't you think you should move permanently to Ghana? believe me you won't be missed one bit.

Meanwhile where all those PH Nairalanders like ow11, Ibime etc ?

Hibernating.

holydante:
From the office of statistics, Sokoto and most states in the North claim huge land mass and this has been useful for sharing national cake for them, thereby from the foregoing, I support the motion that Sokoto or any core northern state should be allocated with the graceful priviledge of playing host to the nuclear reactor.this should be their own 13% derivation.

Sokoto for nuclear reactor,!!!!  Sokoto for nuclear reactor,!!!! Sokoto for nuclear reactor,!!!! Sokoto for nuclear reactor,!!!!Sokoto for nuclear reactor,!!!!Sokoto for nuclear reactor,!!!!Sokoto for nuclear reactor,!!!!Sokoto for nuclear reactor,!!!!

hahahahah the bolded part is so funny
the fact tht u living in your comfort zone doesn't mean the 149million Nigerians left are living same, the sad and reality part is tht your people are rather washing those people's arzzes, dude wake up from your slumber its happening

Like i told you earlier on, i rather concentrate on my country than any other country out there, it pays well to channel my energy towards my country than waste it debating with you on your country. (think about this)
